![[Image: title.661.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/23/title.661.jpg) Completed. Interesting context and reasonably watchable, but cliched soap opera plots and tendency to cram in too many "social issues" without giving them enough depth. Left a few storylines hanging at end of S1 and introduced a new coachload of arrivals, so clearly setting things up for a 2nd series. Lots of vehicles also used here. |

The Arcadia and the Fairmore are the same ship, digitally recoloured. |

S2 (6 eps, set in 1957 and continuing seamlessly from S1) now completed. Similar to S1 - easily watchable, well photographed, good locations, some interesting characters and plotlines, lovely scenery where the sun always shines - but there's some darker themes bubbling away underneath which suggests Australia wasn't a happy country full of opportunity for some with abject poverty, racism, semi-apartheid, and brutal government/police repression surfacing. So cosy Sunday evening television but with a harder edge than I'd expected. A few plot lines left open for resumption if they do a third series ... They've obviously taken period car sourcing seriously with a juicy selection to enjoy, but lots of plate witchcraft - some cars change plates whenever they feel like it, and most plates are dud - very few hits on the NSW check site. And after a bit it becomes noticeable that almost everything is pristine gleaming restos - hardly any shabby stuff which you'd expect to see as daily drivers. Some stuff: - London blitz ![[Image: r01-12street.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/r01-12street.jpg) - that boat from S1 is recoloured and renamed yet again - now Apollo Cross ![[Image: s2recoloureds1boat.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/s2recoloureds1boat.jpg) ![[Image: s2recoloureds1boatbapollocross.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/s2recoloureds1boatbapollocross.jpg) ![[Image: s2recoloureds1boatc.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/s2recoloureds1boatc.jpg) - lovely choo-choo line in ep 2.05 ![[Image: traina.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/traina.jpg) ![[Image: train.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/train.jpg) ![[Image: trainc.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/trainc.jpg) ![[Image: traind.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/traind.jpg) ![[Image: traine.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/traine.jpg) ![[Image: trainf.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/25/trainf.jpg) |
